My diary of transcendence from the heavens

Chapter 79 77. The whole world rebels and takes over the capital

An eunuch over thirty years old, with a pale face and a dusty face, sat on his seat and handed Zhao Xuanqi the gold medal from Emperor Jingming.

This eunuch was Emperor Jingming's confidant, and he said with an anxious look: "Wars are raging in the world today, half of the country has fallen, and seven of the eighteen mountains and rivers have become the territory of the rebels!"

"This…"

Zhao Xuanqi's hand holding the gold medal trembled.

He knew that the turmoil this time was huge and the rebels were fierce and powerful, but he didn't expect that the scene was beyond imagination.

Eighteen mountains and rivers, seven of them have fallen!

Most of the world has fallen into the hands of the rebels, which means that if you are not careful, there may be a change of dynasty and the fall of the capital!

This means that troubled times have come. No one knows how many people will die in this war, order collapses, and everything falls into bloody killings!
Although he had expected this scene, Zhao Xuanqi found it still difficult to calm down when such a thing was about to happen.

He murmured to himself: "My energy-raising skills are still not enough!"

Fortunately, the eunuch told the good news just right:

"Although the rebellion has become so serious, fortunately, the rebels have different opinions. The rebels in various places have no contact with each other and belong to different leaders. They even hate each other. They attack each other, seize cities and territories, and plunder each other's populations. There is wealth..."

When Zhao Xuanqi heard the news, he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "They are just a bunch of clowns. As long as the imperial court comes to its senses and elite soldiers from all over the country gather together, there will be a chance to sweep across all directions and wipe out these rebel armies one by one!"

After all, the rebel army is just a peasant rebel army. The weapons of many of them are hoes, or they are just found sticks. Their combat effectiveness is not that strong. They can fight in a downwind situation, but if it is a headwind situation, they will not be much better. They will collapse at the first touch!
The eunuch nodded in agreement and said, "That's true. Your Majesty thinks so too."

"So your Majesty ordered the kings of the world to order the feudal officials from all over the world to recruit troops, form an army, lead the army to the capital, defend the capital, accept the leadership, and unite as one to capture the rebels!"

Zhao Xuanqi opened his mouth, but in the end he said nothing.

Seeing this, the eunuch immediately stated the purpose of his visit: "This gold medal is a summons. The rebels are so fierce and the capital is very unstable. Your Majesty orders you to form an army and go to the capital to escort you. In addition, there will be Other officials went to escort him."

The diligent king of the world defends the capital!
"I obey the emperor's order!"

Zhao Xuanqi held the gold medal in his hand and looked at it carefully. The gold medal was not made of gold, but brass. It was a bit heavy, and he found that there was nothing wrong with the gold medal. It was indeed His Majesty's gold medal.

There are not too many choices but to choose to agree.

As a minister, how can you have too many choices?

Most of them can only follow orders.

then,

In the next half month, Zhao Xuanqi used his power to recruit troops in the Ziyun County area and used the resources accumulated over the years to arm the army.

In Ziyun County, Zhao Xuanqi has a very good reputation. In recent years, he has made many achievements that are beneficial to people's livelihood. He is famous. Officials and people from all over the country have received favors from Emperor Jingming. His family or clan members have all received gifts, so they are all very famous. Cooperate with Zhao Xuanqi.

At this critical moment, the top and bottom were unified, and there was no trouble.

In just half a month, Zhao Xuanqi armed an army of 13000 people.

Many of the soldiers are young and middle-aged men with strong military skills, and some are capable warriors who have retired from the border. They are good at fighting on the battlefield and have experience in fighting on the battlefield.

Ziyun County has been stable and prosperous for ten years. Many people want to repay Zhao Xuanqi's kindness, or repay Emperor Jingming's kindness. The kindness they have received in these years has made these people dare to dedicate their lives to protect their families and the country. , in order to protect the prosperity of Ziyun County, you can not be afraid of life and death!
The people and the common people are so simple and honest. As long as they can have enough to eat and live a good life, they will dare to fight for you!

They know Emperor Jingming's favor over the years, and also understand Zhao Xuanqi's hard work over the years, so they have lived a good life, and even the family is enjoying various preferential treatment and benefits. They still have a strong sense of belonging to the court, so they fight Very strong mind!

So this army is very powerful!

Dare to fight!

After another month of training, Zhao Xuanqi selected out some unqualified people and replaced them with those who could fight and dared to fight. At this point, Zhao Xuanqi said goodbye to his wife and children and set off with the army.

Come to Beijing to be the King of Qin!

Zhao Xuanqi set out with an army of 13000 people.

There are still many troops stationed in Ziyun County to protect the county from the harm of war. The combat quality of these troops is worrying. They can protect one place, but they are not good at all if they go on an expedition.

In this kind of ancient society, an army that can go on expeditions is definitely the best among the best. Zhao Xuanqi can gather an expeditionary army of more than 1 people, which is considered extremely powerful.

Including the consumption of food and resources, the expedition consumes extra material resources. If more people go on the expedition, everyone may starve to death on the way. Zhao Xuanqi takes these people on the expedition, which is already the limit that the entire Ziyun County can bear.

Following the road to Ziyun County, Zhao Xuanqi led his army toward Chang'an City.

Except for the 3000 cavalry, most of the remaining soldiers were infantry and could only travel on foot, so their speed was limited.

Along the way, Zhao Xuanqi thoroughly witnessed the suffering of troubled times.

In addition to military troubles, the territories of several other counties and cities also encountered natural disasters and man-made disasters. The combination of these two factors can be described as hell on earth.

Coupled with the corruption of officials in various places, it was impossible to control the situation for a while, and the scene could be described as falling apart!
The people are mourning all over the place, and the land is full of hungry people. There is no human habitation for ten miles, and there is no rooster crow for hundreds of miles. Although some places have not yet reached the point where they can exchange children for food, they are almost there!
Many victims gathered together and ran on the road to escape, with dull faces and despair in their eyes. Once they fell on the road to escape, they would never be able to stand up again and would only become a skeleton in the wasteland.

Zhao Xuanqi watched all this from a distance, and finally realized one point: the world is desolate, and troubled times are really coming!

This is a chaotic world that eats people without blinking an eye!
He finally accepted the desolation of the world, and finally accepted the chaos of the world.

Good things never come in pairs.When Zhao Xuanqi was halfway through the journey, bad news came again from the court:

The rebels have united!

A leader of the rebel army named General Chongtian led a group of desperate rogues and wandered around, burning, killing, and looting. Wherever he went, other rebels were impressed and either became his subordinates or became his food.

Yes, his army eats people.

The imperial army once encircled and suppressed him, forcing him to go to a desperate situation, and he was about to starve to death somewhere. As a result, he and the peasant rebels under his command actually relied on eating corpses to survive the encirclement and suppression. , escaped the disaster and escaped from the encirclement.

From then on, this army flourished, traveling in all directions, killing all the local noble families, and even some innocent people for resources and money.

Like a demon emerging from hell, he kills wherever he goes and robs wherever he goes!
The name of the Prodigal Army can stop children from crying at night.

In this regard, the Wandering Army recovered the rebel armies in various places one by one, from more than 1 people at the beginning to more than 10,000 people. They defeated the local army of the imperial court many times. In the end, they even captured the county and recruited some imperial soldiers who had long been dissatisfied with the imperial court. , using elite armed forces to besiege the imperial court!
Now, all the rebel armies have gathered under the command of General Chongtian, and the seven mountains and rivers in the world have become the territory of General Chongtian.

In more than a month after that, he led the rebel army to capture four mountains and rivers one after another. Now the rebel army was not only completely unified, but also owned a huge territory of eleven mountains and rivers!

Nearly two-thirds of the world's territory has fallen into the hands of General Chongtian. He has an army of more than 30 and nearly 40 under his command. He has a strong momentum along the way and has strong morale. He has already approached the capital and is preparing to lay siege to the capital. Attack Chang'an City!
"Two-thirds of the world's territory fell into the hands of the rebels!"

"And with an army of 40, there are so many soldiers and vast generals."

When Zhao Xuanqi heard the news, his face turned pale and he took a breath of air.

The scattered rebel army is not a threat, but the unified rebel army can definitely subvert everything. When the sparks of the peasant rebel army are gathered together, they become a flame that can ignite everything in this era!
That the situation could be so serious was something he didn't expect, and probably no one in the world would have imagined!

The Northern Wei Kingdom, which originally seemed strong and stable, turned out to be so unbearable. In just a few months, half of the country was captured. It is really beyond evaluation!

In this case, misfortunes never come singly.

The building will tilt, and people's hearts will not be the same.

Some princes who, like Zhao Xuanqi, were preparing to march against King Qin, after hearing the news, gave up their plans to march towards King Qin, and led their armies to change directions and prepare to return home.

In this critical situation, countless officials who were originally loyal to the king chose to retreat or separatist forces.

On the next road, Zhao Xuanqi encountered many princes leading their armies to retreat, either preparing to return to their hometowns to seize the base, or preparing to maintain their strength and capital to face the coming troubled times with full strength.

He was wavering for a moment and couldn't help but fall into a state of hesitation. He asked to the left and right: "The princes in the world have abandoned your majesty. They are either separatist or retreating bravely. We are like fish against the current. I'm afraid it will be terrible if we go away." Are you afraid of the dangers and the dangers?"

The left and right people replied: "We have been deeply favored by the imperial court and we dare not give in. If you return to your hometown, we will protect your hometown. If you advance, we will die in the service of King Qin. We will swim upstream and die in the service of your majesty."

Zhao Xuanqi saw that they were not afraid because of such a critical situation, but were determined to die for His Majesty.

As expected, Emperor Jingming has shown a lot of favors to Ziyun County over the years. As ordinary people in Ziyun County, they clearly remember who is good, so in this critical situation of a near-death life, Willing to sacrifice his life to protect Emperor Jingming.

Every cause must have its effect. If it weren't for Emperor Jingming's favor, how could these soldiers be willing to risk their lives to protect him?

Of course, all the choices lie with Zhao Xuanqi, because the reason why Ziyun County City is able to obtain favor and obtain such huge benefits is mainly because of Zhao Xuanqi!

Zhao Xuanqi has been gaining prestige in Ziyun County for a long time since he won the first prize. His orders are more useful in the eyes of the soldiers than those of Emperor Jingming!
If Zhao Xuanqi retreats, then they will retreat.

If Zhao Xuanqi is diligent, then they are all diligent.

They are willing to accept both choices, and their combat effectiveness and willpower will not collapse because of a certain choice.

The choices were all in line with expectations, so no matter what choice Zhao Xuanqi made, their will to fight would still be strong.

How could Zhao Xuanqi retreat?

The soldiers dared to fight.

As the leader of an army, how could he have any reason to shrink?

What's more, Emperor Jingming is indeed very kind to himself, including his fellow villagers and elders. If he still retreats after he has already reached the halfway point, wouldn't it mean that his prestige has been ruined for many years and will make everyone laugh?Do you want to hang out in Ziyun County?

The Lord's goodness is ahead, how can the teacher of benevolence and righteousness retreat?
Although the situation is critical, it has not yet reached the point of ruining the country. The country can still be saved, so Zhao Xuanqi is naturally willing to go to Beijing to serve the king.

The stronger the wind, the more expensive the fish will be. It is said that wealth can be gained through danger.

If you defend the capital, your descendants will enjoy endless wealth!
The walls of Chang'an City are tall, and there are so many young and middle-aged residents inside. If you defend against the danger, you have a great chance of defending!
This is why Zhao Xuanqi is willing to move on.

In this way, Zhao Xuanqi led the army towards Chang'an City without hesitation, and the soldiers also went there happily. They sang songs from their hometown along the way to strengthen their courage. They maintained a good condition and had a strong fighting mentality.

In this way, when countless princes retreated, Zhao Xuanqi was like a fish swimming upstream, very conspicuous.

Many princes who passed by were amazed by him. They admired Zhao Xuanqi's talent and integrity. Even in such a desperate situation, he was still willing to protect the monarch, and the soldiers were still willing to risk their lives to follow him. He was a great talent!

Some powerful princes even couldn't help but persuade Zhao Xuanqi to go back with them, preserve their strength, gather forces, and strive to gain a seat in such troubled times. There is no need to go head-to-head with the prodigal army for the safety of the fatuous emperor.

The reason why the world collapsed is entirely due to your Majesty's lack of moral principles!

However, Zhao Xuanqi refused them forcefully, condemned them for a while, refused all requests, and finally went upstream and successfully reached Chang'an City!

After traveling for more than a month, Zhao Xuanqi led more than 1 troops and successfully entered the capital!
